<![CDATA[
/**********************************************************************
* GUIMediaStatistics - a GUI allowing the user to select a media
* file from tjelocal file system and gain statistics on that media
* (audio or video) concerning its tracks and their format/composition.
*
* The class is built atop the MediaStatistics class and arguably
* provides a more user friendly mechanism for determining the
*format of media.
